Olma

 By Bruce Shawkey

Found this ad in the Sept./Oct. 1954 issue of Swiss Horological Journal for Olma watches:


The brand was created by Paul Jeannin Bourquin in 1926 in Fleurier, Switzerland. The Olma brand was registered on January 22, 1926. Olma never made its own movements. But the brand introduced several innovations in the field of sealing its cases. Many models are proudly adorned with the mention “waterproof”. Here are some images of vintage Olma watches:
